Re: [MBZ] Must Be a Boob Man
4Matic isn't a necessity here, but I'm wondering if it would be a liability? Any issues with 4Matic on these?

Re: [MBZ] Must Be a Boob Man
That one looks decent. I think 27mpg might be optimistic in a 4matic though but maybe possible. It appears to be well optioned though but not really sure you need 4matic and heated seats in Florida Sent from my iPhone On Jul 17, 2015, at 4:42 AM, Dan Penoff via Mercedes mercedes@okiebenz.com wrote: Guess it would help to include the link: http://tampa.craigslist.org/hil/cto/5112939376.html http://tampa.craigslist.org/hil/cto/5112939376.html Dan On Jul 16, 2015, at 9:44 PM, Dan Penoff via Mercedes mercedes@okiebenz.com wrote: Looking forward to checking out that “Titronic” automatic all wheel drive. rim shot Thanks folks, I’ll be here all week.

Early 4-matics had problems according to someone on the list. Daughter has 2006 4-matic, 175K, and no problems.

Using the existing brakes makes for a much more reliable system than the electronically variable fluid coupled limited slip differentials. The W124 system was complex and needed frequent repair. The W210 system consisted of three free spool differentials instead of the usual one free spool found in a 2wd car. In normal driving, the traction loss lamp starts blinking and the back end gets a bit 'happy', without any detectable attempt on the car's part to control the spinning rear wheels. Then I back off the throttle and things go back to normal. The one time I got exasperated enough at the stuck car to floor it in the snow, the electronics took control of the throttle and braked the spinning wheels. I still didn't go anywhere, the underlying problem was that the snow packed in front of and under the car outweighed the car. Took me a couple of hours to dig it out and get it back in its parking spot. This is what happens when you try to drive the car with 15-18 of snow in the driveway and 'all season' tires, it only goes about 50'.
